A GAMBLER OR AN INVESTOR* (II)

*A GAMBLER OR AN INVESTOR* (II)

_Key Bible Text:_
*A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself: but the simple pass on, and are punished.* (Proverbs 22:3 (KJV))

_Bible Insight:_
The gamblers, for example, are those who fail to give tithes and follow other divine and natural principles of financial breakthrough, and still wonder why they are not prosperous. But who are the investors? 

I liken the investors to the ants. Proverbs 30:25 (KJV) says *"The ants are a people not strong, yet they prepare their meat in the summer;"* The ants are investors in this context. They don't wish that all will be well in the winter (coldest/rainy) and play away the summer (hottest/sunny) season. 

You can't wish away the seasons of life. There will always be seed times and harvest times. When we play away the seed planting season, we will be horrible and regretful during the harvest seasons.

Many older persons live in regret wishing they can turn back the hands of time. If you are relatively young and reading this, how are you making investments for you short, medium and long term harvest? 

Your destiny is in your hands because God have placed you in charge of it. Yes, you can surrender your destiny to God but God cannot do for you what He has created to do through you. 

Don't be among those who waste the opportunities life throw at them, but later run to beg others and depend on others to meet up. You don't have anyone to blame even if you started off with some bit of a disadvantaged background. Maximize the seasons of your life. Be an investor and not a gambler. 

MEDITATION:
*The man who blames other people for his misfortune is as irresponsible as the one who depends on others to be successful. Taking responsibility for your life is the beginning of power.* -- Sam Chiaka

WELCOME TO THE GOSPEL

*DAILY DEW 11TH/DECEMBER/2021* *WELCOME TO THE GOSPEL* _Key Bible Text:_ *And how shall they preach, except they be sent? as it is written, How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!* (Romans 10:15 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ In the old testament, an adulterer or adulteress was condemned to be stoned to death before God. That was the law. In the new testament, Jesus said to an adulteress "I do not condemn you, go and sin no more" Believe me, the law had not changed. The penalty for adultery was still death. And Jesus did not come to abolish the law, or change the law. He came to FULFILL it. So He had the right to tell her to go because He was going to bear the penalty for her adultery. He had taken her condemnation upon Himself. He was going to die for her. And so He could tell her to GO....and sin no more. Brothers and sisters; welcome to the Gospel.  _MEDITATION:_ *"The real gospel makes a poor man

As Jesus or As yourself?*

*DAILY DEW 2ND/DECEMBER/2021* *As Jesus or As yourself?* _Key Bible Text:_ * A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.* (John 13:34 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ One of the most outstanding things about the Christmas season is the birth of Christ. While we must remember or even celebrate this blessed season, we must never forget the spirit behind God's move and decision in sending His son Jesus. The answer to the why of Jesus' coming to earth is simply, LOVE. John 3:16 may have been abused but it cannot be overused or overemphasized. Jesus is God's decision born out of love. "For God so loved", he couldn't help but "gave His only begotten son". And even that had a reason, "that whosoever believes in Him, should not perish but have everlasting life". So God's love in sending Jesus was not exactly "reckless" but absolutely intentional and expedien

What's Your Focus?*

Image
*DAILY DEW 19TH/JULY/2021* *What's Your Focus?*  _Key Bible Text:_ *For as he thinks in his heart, so is he. As one who reckons, he says to you, eat and drink, yet his heart is not with you [but is grudging the cost].* (Proverbs 23:7 (AMP))  _Bible Insight:_ I’ve learnt one thing in life so far: what you focus on somehow expands. Focus on your business, invest your thoughts and imaginations on how to grow it, talk about it with your spouse and friends; and gradually but surely, it will expand.  On the other hand, spend your time on every gist in town and watch the uselessness of your life expand. You will know more gists and gossips and, by the law of attraction, you will attract people like you and your life will nosedive or at best stagnate.  The human mind is powerful to the extent that we focus and whether the focus is to the left or the right, your mind does not care. It will give you back, in multiple folds, what you are steadily planting in it.  This is why the B
